LDAP users unable to login with case-insensitive login names

[infa_bangalore]

Hi,
I am using JBoss LDAP authentication module for LDAP authentication for my application. If i enter the username with incorrect case , i am not able to authenticate...The issue here is that JBoss authentication passes but it returns the user name entered and not the retrieved user name from the repository.

In Weblogic we have some thing called as
Go to Security > Realms > Providers > Authentication
Click the LDAP authenticator. Click Configuration > Details.
Select "Use Retrieved User Name As Principal" checkbox.
If we check this box it returns the Reteived user name as principal and authentication passes successfully...

Do we have the similar settings for Jboss 3.2.1


Thanks in Advance
Debra

Is there a way to set the principal of the callBackHandler explicitly

[j2ee_junkie]

Your request is hard to understand, but I think what you are asking for is to have the JAAS layer set a new user principal (different from the username principal) obtained from realm to replace the username principal. If this is correct, then I think that is why JBoss has the 'CallerPrinicpal' Subject usage pattern. So I think you may need to extend the LDAP login module to handle this in a custom fashion.

Does this solve your problem? cgriffith
